Alcohol Rehab and Treatment from The Coleman Institute

An Innovative Approach to Alcohol Addiction, Recovery and Sobriety

Let’s be honest. If you or your loved one didn’t have an alcohol problem, you would not be on our website. If it were easy to quit drinking, most people would have stopped a long time ago. Maybe you or someone you know has quit drinking – several times. But there are always the cravings, the restlessness and the triggers, which bring people back. This is why recovery and sobriety rates of success have always remained low.

The first step in recovering from an alcohol problem is detoxification. At The Coleman Institute, we have developed an innovative, outpatient alcohol detoxification that can be completed safely and comfortable in only three days. Click here for more information.

There are many components to alcoholism, including countless we don’t understand. However, there has been substantial and verifiable research to determine that we can reduce the cravings and even make it less stressful to quit. Dr. Coleman has been one of the leading proponents of this new and exciting therapy, using new drugs that provide significant advancements to treating alcoholism, which in turn gives patients dramatically increased chances of realizing a full recovery.

The Coleman Institute uses Naltrexone implants to block the opiod receptors in your brain, which reduces the pleasure or the “high” you get when drinking alcohol. By reducing the cravings and pleasure an alcoholic gets from drinking, the chances s/he has of attaining sobriety are increased. The Naltrexone implants will be used for six to twelve months, depending on each patient’s rate of recovery.

Another drug we use, Topamax, takes a different path by targeting several key areas in the brain and decreasing the release of dopamine–the "feel-good" brain chemical linked to alcohol's rewarding effects—which produces the buzz and overwhelming cravings. We have found Topamax to be very effective in the first days and weeks of sobriety.

The use of Campral has been shown to reduce irritability and restlessness in the beginning stages of sobriety. It balances a patient’s abnormal brain chemistry and reduces the urge to drink in order to feel “normal” again.

But here’s the hard part: these medications alone will not cure alcoholism. Patients will still need to seek therapy or a 12-step program to make the treatment work for the long term. The Coleman Institute will help you make the first move, the most difficult part of treating your alcoholism, and will help you find counseling and a 12-step program to help you live the life you were meant to live: a sober one.
